Medicine Head

Everytime I swear them off and let my chemicals run wild
At first I'm so much more fun and so much more clear eyed
That's before I get the feeling things outside the bed are threats
Before the episodes begin when I go off the meds

Everybody liked me better, there were more people around
I drank more tea than soda, there was no sugar allowed
Did I fall in love with agoraphobia instead
Of keeping my head up the time I went off the meds?

I could fall asleep on Wednesday and wake up on Friday night
And one day with their compounding labs, they will get it right
They will find the recipe
They will find the recipe

I thought I was getting saner, those around me disagreed
I chalked the things that I did wrong up to immaturity
I guess I looked healthier but kind of underfed
I thought that I was better when I went off the meds

I could fall asleep on Wednesday and wake up on Friday night
But one day with their compounding labs, they will get it right
They will find the recipe
They will find the recipe
